I hope so. Both Dame and CJ need to make amends for Game 1.

So is Portland just going to let Curry shoot open 3s all game again? I wish I knew ahead of time so I could just go to bed if they aren't changing things up lol

Kanter and Collins have to be up challenging the 3's even if Curry gets past them a couple of times .What I don't want see is GS 2nd unit destroy the Blazers again .Blazers can win if you don't let everyone on GS getting hot all game long.

No way; Stotts already suggested that he realizes they have to defend Curry on the high PnR differently. I expect they will take the ball out of Curry's hands and force someone else to beat them. So as a Warriors fan, I am wondering if Curry can make the good decisions and if the others can take advantage of the open shots; if they do, they will make the Blazers pay. If they don't, Stotts will look like a genius and everyone will be asking "why didn't he do this in game 1?"

I’m a bit worried about KD :banghead:

The fact that he hasn't done anything yet makes me wonder how bad the strain actually is

Mark Jackson announcing Warrior playoff games always looks like he just bit down on the most sour piece of candy known to man :D
Rest in peace Kobe & Gianna

People are writing off Portland already.. Portland is gone win this game and if Durant doesn’t come back they have chance to win the series.

I don't think we will win 4 out of 5. So coming from a Portland fan, I think if we don't win tonight, we're pretty much screwed. That's just my opinion though

They don't have a chance to win the series unless they tweak their defensive scheme

Even without KD, the Blazers are going up against one of the greatest teams in NBA history.

I think it's an upset if they win a single game in this series. No disrespect to Portland, I would love to see them beat Golden State.

There is always a chance if the other team doesn't have 4 wins, what I am saying is that I would rather if the scenario presents itself, to play a close out game in game 6 at Portland, than in a game 7 against the defending champs, in their building.
